Wow 3rd grade im in kindergarten and I can play this.
W O M B
Tyler is such a noob. I played this in the womb.
@Cyrus Ulises I know you and your compatriot are bots, but why did two bots decide to have a conversation on this comment thread of all threads? It's over a year old at this point.
@@tylernguyen6060 and now its been another year
Nobuya Sugawa has the perfect skill for this piece, absolutely no flaw. In addition, his musical interpretation of the piece is insanely amazing.
If you listen close enough, you will notice that the low stuff isn't glissed there. In addition, just because you can't play it, doesn't mean that a man who is 1. better than you 2. practices more than you and 3. practices this piece more than you can't.
I'm so surprised by these comments, I've heard this piece done live not by Sugawa, but it's all very possible. This recording is not altered, it's just well rehearsed.
Just making fun of all the people who take rep like this and say things like "I'm playing this and I'm only in 8th grade".
oh my god i just can't get over how magical this feels.
Gonna try and play this by the Second Grade. Wow it's tough!!
"Sugawa sounds too much like a string player to be the best."
-Said no one ever.
Because everyone is aware of that sentence being grammatically incorrect.
It's perfectly possible, it's not even as hard as you make it to be. This is real. Just takes years of practice.
And proper equipment
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD.
This whole sonata is just so.... so beautiful... I don't ...
I can't even form words I love it so much.
The whole sonata is absolutely beautiful.
Hope you haven't forgotten about it and still enjoy it!
the time signature changes in this piece are on another level
Takashi and Nobuya have gotten me excited about classical saxophone after finding most of the old literature uninteresting.

Ce morceau est tellement magnifique ! Un jour j'arriverai à le jouer, j'en suis sûr ! 🎶🎷
HELL yes, I remember hearing this in college. Such an amazing piece. It reminds me of musical theatre!
Me too, I just need to find a pianist who can come and accompany me for this one now... :)
Fuzzy Bird sonata is not technically extremely difficult piece. But it is a hard one to put feelings in it and make it sound smooth because of what I mentioned before. I used to spend 2 years to find out answer about this record and after I saw the live version of Fuzzy Bird from Nobuya, I kind of knew the key..
In addition,everyone has his own characteristic. What matters a lot is whether u enjoys in ur own tone.
Other professional players' criticism makes no differences.
I wanna go back any days to the golden twenties and taste the life, the music and so on...
Weimarer Republic for ever....
This piece is killing me so far haha I'm gonna get it down though. Great recording
Update: after getting a degree in Music ed i never mastered any part of this thing. Just tabled it and moved on. Now four years after school i just picked it back up. Always wanted to learn it so here i go again!
alexnelson09 good luck lol
alexnelson09 How'd it go?
@@alexnelson09 How’d it go?
Very beautifull, bravooooo!!!!
Kuo, you do know this piece was written FOR Sugawa, don't you? These techniques are not impossible. Slurring smoothly between the normal range into the altissimo is all in the throat/air coordination. If your altissimo only comes out louder than your normal range then you're not doing it correctly.
This is awesome. Sounds hard... but I want to try it.
It is believable that he isn't a god, or that he isn't the best saxophonist. No one meant that literally. However, in my opinion, there is good tone and bad tone. His is good, and therefore is a measure of better professionality
I'm in 7th grade wind symphony first chair alto and can play this blindfolded am i good yet????¿¿¿¿??¿?¿¿¿?
Im 7 years old and ive learnt this in 2 days, am i good? or not? i can also play this a whole octave up since my altissimo range is very advanced
nahh ur bad, I could play this two octaves up when i was in the womb

How do you get pitched slap tongues. Only works for me on the three low notes
Ben Taylor back with more air, don’t sacrifice embouchure for the slap to speak. And practice slapping in the whole register, it will get easier with time and practice
Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy ha-
Who is the composer?
In addition,
that mouth piece use nobuya sugawa on this recording?
Selmer s90 is what sugawa mostly use
1:41
-?
All I wanna say is, fuzzy bird can be performed and everyone knows that. My point is who can perform it so perfectly and really sound like this record? is this one "real"?
I heard Kenneth Tse do it live, and most excellent.

gonna try and be able to play this by senior year in highschool
did you do it?
@@xavierwalsh4244 I mean while unlikely, I know of this ridiculous sax player who was a sophomore in highschool playing this (he’s been taking lessons for years). And it was really crisp, not the typical getting through with a couple fumbles and tone/intonation issues that you think when you hear of a high schooler playing a hard piece like the Creston or the Ibert, I mean he played that piece better than most sax players currently at my university could play it.

Ahhh lol I see haha
lol what?
You clearly did not understand what I was saying. you just say no to me for no clear reasons. As I said, please listen to his own live version performance on youtube, you know everything.
You are right in the "modified by computer" part. There are NO recordings anymore that are not autotuned, albeit most recordings the autotune is very minimal and is just there for small pitch corrections, because a recording has to be PERFECT
I don't know why, but it sounds like this record is not "real". Some parts of it sounds impossible to play by a normal saxophone. For example,0:33~0:34, it should be higher than normal range on saxophone, which is completely possible but by the same time the volume decreasing. This sounds really weird. As a saxophone player, I tried this for like 8 month but still failed to make the effect. When I played beyond the normal range, the volume increases and if not, the sound is hard to come.
It's possible dont worry.. you just have to be really good and have the proper equipment, like mouthpiece and/or Reed, maybe it was hard to decrease volume because of Reed strength or you mouthpiece couldnt handle it.
Nah this guy was just bad
I mean "check that out". I m not finishing..high level players can hide such limit by technique. ..but they can never hide it 100% like what's going on in this video. Raaf Hekkema, another extremely skillful saxophone players who can use highest level of techniques in performance, still can't avoid such problems. His record of Pagnini 24 pieces is one of the examples. You can still distinguish how he can achieve that even though what he's using is ten times more difficult than those in F.B.
And btw, I don't play music anymore. but i am still enjoying listening to it. Nobuya sugawa has remarkable technique, but he can never be NO.1 in the world. and he is not a god. Many professional saxophone players I know critisized that Nobuya's tone is more like string and not saxophone. I gave some of examples in previous responses and you can compare them with this video. WHAT I BELIEVE is that this record had been modified by computer, but just several small parts of it not the whole.
no no, youtube has another version of his own playing and you can check that other(title is Moscow concert or sth.) In that video, Nobuya plays this famous piece, and that is quite normal. I mean, that performance sounds real because of so-call imperfect techniques. I ve been playing this for 10 years and I really know what people can do and what they cannot. some incredible techniques are possible to play but you can never play it very perfectly..that is the limit of the instrument not players.
Anyway,even though this has been modified ,it still gives all the saxophone players an ideal,which makes us expect ourselves to be more and more perfect.
Some people can play this well with out modification.
This isn’t modified.
Not modified
gliss he used between 0:53-0:54 is also almost impossible to achieve. from low 5 to really high 7. I could not perform so perfectly, and I believe no one really can without other means of support. Somewhere in the middle, he also moves very fast on 4.5, which is higher than normal range. High 5 is hard to play on alto , I mean it is hard because pf the finger and mouth. It is possible to play fast but for me, I tried for 8 month and still couldn't make it perfect like that. It's just impossible
You need to practice more overtones and voicings.
I promise it isn't the difficult part is finding fingerings that work for the gliss and you need to to make sure your air is constant if not it will not work. Just keep trying
Buy the Top Times book by Sigurd Rancher, do the exercises daily for 1 year and you will see how doing a perfect glissando into the altissimo is easy with the right practice.
little bit too much vibrato
Kevin S. That’s the style
Once you play saxophone like this, then you can judge. At the current moment you can't
ThePureGamer yes.
